Damn it!

"Where do you think you're going!"

The two elders of the Lihuo Sect had bloodshot eyes. They watched Yi Yun's body disappear into the clouds and immediately gave chase. How could they save face if Yi Yun escaped today?!

However, Yi Yun's speed was too fast. The Golden Crow Sun-Plunder Movement Technique came from Lord Qingyang's collection and was most suitable for Yi Yun to cultivate. It could be said that it was tailor-made for Yi Yun.

The two elders of the Lihuo Sect had to stop after chasing for only a short distance.

Because they couldn't even find Yi Yun within their perception range.

In fact, just by looking at their speed, they knew they couldn't catch up at all.

A junior at the Dao Seed Realm fought against three elders at the Kaiyuan Realm and escaped unscathed. Not only that, he also severed Elder Shentu's arm and caused the tragic deaths of seven or eight young disciples of the Lihuo Sect.

In the end, they watched helplessly as the other person disappeared, completely powerless to stop it!

This is absolutely outrageous!

If this gets out, people will definitely laugh their heads off.

Both of them were extremely depressed; when they returned, their faces were as black as the bottom of a pot.

What happened today can be said to be the greatest disgrace of their lives.

Not to mention the possibility of them facing retaliation from Yi Yun in the future, being targeted by such a monstrous talent means that within a few years, Yi Yun could kill them as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

Even without Yi Yun lifting a finger, they will face punishment from the sect upon their return.

The loss of seven or eight young geniuses from various sects, coupled with the charge of failing to protect the younger generation, has brought shame upon the Lihuo Sect. People will say that the elders of the Lihuo Sect are all useless, manipulated by a Dao Seed Realm junior.

Given the strict rules of the Lihuo Sect, they dared not even imagine the consequences.

This is so frustrating!

"Elder... Elder..."

The disciples of the Lihuo Sect were all trembling with fear. Yi Yun's actions had been too impactful, and the sight of their fellow disciples dying tragically before their eyes, their bodies torn to pieces, blood and flesh splattered everywhere, had terrified them.

These dead people were no weaker than them; the only difference was that they were unlucky.

If luck had turned around, they would be the ones dismembered now.

Facing a junior like themselves, who, under the protection of the elders, had to rely on luck and coincidence to survive, this blow was truly hard to accept.

"Shut up, all of you!"

An elder from the Lihuo Sect shouted, his stern gaze sweeping over Elder Shentu, who was lying on the ground, twitching slightly.

This guy is in a terrible state right now. His right side is torn apart, and one of his arms is almost broken. Although with a miracle cure, the arm could be reattached, it would probably take at least half a year for him to fully recover.

However... the two elders of the Lihuo Sect obviously couldn't let Elder Shentu return to his Lineage to recuperate.

The death of seven or eight sect geniuses—someone has to bear the responsibility.

Bringing the direct murderers back to the sect would result in much lighter punishments for them, while the Shentu Family would have to pay a price if they wanted to take the prisoners.

"Damn it!"

An elder of the Lihuo Sect cursed inwardly. Suddenly, he struck out, hitting Elder Shentu's dantian with a palm strike. The energy entered Elder Shentu's body, sealing his heart meridian.

Elder Shentu's body trembled, and a look of anger appeared on his face. "You... you!"

He was already severely injured, and now his cultivation was sealed. When the elder of the Lihuo Sect invaded his body with his vital energy, it caused secondary damage to his fragile body.

Now he is truly like a stray dog, utterly powerless to resist.

"Take him away! I'll take responsibility if anything happens!" The elder of the Lihuo Sect Elder Shentu Shen Tu, too lazy to say anything more, and directly ordered the Lihuo Sect disciples to drag him away.

In his view, Elder Shentu was probably crippled, and the Shentu Family might abandon him as compensation to the Lihuo Sect.

The elders of the Lihuo Sect naturally didn't bother to be polite to such a person.

This unfortunate Elder Shentu was thus taken away.

"No one is to divulge a single word about what happened today, do you hear me!"

Another elder from the Lihuo Sect shouted angrily. The three of them had ganged up on a junior, yet they ended up in such a miserable state.

Although it was said that the young man was malicious and did not defeat the three of them head-on, but rather through cunning and a sneak attack, people would not care about such details; they only cared about the result.

Once this news spreads throughout the Tianyuan Realm, how will they remain in the martial arts community? How will the Lihuo Sect survive?

"But..."

Several younger members of the family glanced subconsciously in the direction of the Lin family's residence.

Outside the Lin family's mountain gate, about a dozen young disciples of the Lin family, Lin Qiao, and two elders of the Lin family who had just arrived all witnessed this scene.

Judging from Lin Qiao's use of telepathy, the two newly arrived elders probably already knew what had just happened.

Judging from their expressions, they were clearly also extremely shocked by Yi Yun's performance just now.

Immediately, the elder of the Lihuo Sect felt a headache coming on.

With so many people knowing about it, it's naturally difficult to suppress the news.

He frowned, and although he was extremely unwilling, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk toward the Lin family.

He was already planning how to persuade the other party to keep the secret, perhaps by establishing Soul Contract. Of course, getting the Lin family to obey wouldn't be so easy...

"Cough cough..."

The elder of the Lihuo Sect coughed a few times. The Third Elder Lin was slightly taken aback by the other party's reaction, but he already guessed what he was going to do.

To have driven two elders of the Lihuo Sect to this point, and to have another elder of the Shentu Family fall into utter ruin due to a momentary wrong choice, such a young man is truly terrifying!

Not only is his talent astounding, but his grasp of timing in battle is equally terrifying!

Faced with the combined attack and sneak assault of the three elders, he reacted instantly, temporarily dodging with his exquisite Movement Technique. When he was unable to fight them head-on, he used the disciples of the Lihuo Sect as human shields to resolve the crisis. Later, he even managed to forcefully break in at the right moment, severely injuring Elder Shentu under the combined attack of the other two elders, and then retreating unscathed. Such skills were simply Celestial Person!

"Brother Qiao, I'm sorry you had to see this."

An elder from the Lihuo Sect spoke awkwardly. He was usually arrogant and domineering in front of Lin Qiao.

But now they're behaving so humbly and showing weakness right from the start, which really makes him feel frustrated.

But there was no other way. He could disregard his own reputation, but he couldn't ignore the reputation of the Lihuo Sect. If he kept the news under wraps, the Lihuo Sect would look better on the surface, and the loss of a few young disciples would be understandable.

After all, for a major sect like the Lihuo Sect, once its strength reaches this level, its reputation is extremely important.

This is also why the two elders of the Lihuo Sect will receive lighter punishments after returning to their sect.

"Brother Gongsun, what is it?"

Lin Qiao smiled, her eyes narrowing into slits.

Seeing the Lihuo Sect and the Shentu Family suffer a setback, he was overjoyed. Today's events had truly been full of twists and turns, with one climax after another.

It was so awesome! While watching the match, he almost cheered for the mysterious young man.

"Um... about what happened just now..."

Before the elder of the Lihuo Sect could finish speaking, Lin Qiao interrupted, feigning ignorance, and said, "Oh! What happened just now? I've already recorded the video and reported it to the Lineage's higher-ups. To prevent things from getting out of control, the Lineage has notified most of the Lin family members, and they're on their way here! Don't worry, Brother Gongsun, we'll definitely clean up the battlefield."

Lin Qiao deliberately spoke in a disgusting way, and the elder of the Lihuo Sect almost choked on it.

He ignored Lin Qiao's sarcastic remark about "cleaning up the battlefield" and focused only on Lin Qiao's earlier statement...

"The entire Lineage has already been notified?"

The two elders of the Lihuo Sect blinked, momentarily stunned.
